      summary: Retrieve the result of the last scan
      description: This endpoint allows you to retrieve the tables and views held by a connection based on the last connection scan. It can only be done if you have previously scanned the JDBC connection by calling this endpoint with the POST method. Once the scan is done, you can call the GET endpoint in order to get the result. If the connection has changed (for example new tables/views have been added), then you must call a POST scan in order to refresh the state.
